Morrisville

Morrisville is located in Lamoille County, 28 miles north of Montpelier, along Highway 100 on the banks of the Lamoille River near Smugglers Notch State Park.

Morrisville, like Vermont's other mountainbound towns, grew rapidly when railroad service reached the area. Visible reminders of that impact remain on Portland Street, where structures more closely resemble those of a Western boomtown that those of a New England village.

The population estimate for July 1, 1998 was 2,206, an increase of 222 since 1990.
